EN: to be buried in ruins; to have something collapse on
Imagine your Jenga tower finally giving up on life and collapsing on a poor, unsuspecting game piece. That's `maguhuan`. It's what happens when things fall apart, literally, on top of you. Also, the state of your life after seeing your ex with someone new.
From `ma-` (potential passive prefix) + `guho` (ruins, collapse) + `-an` (locative/benefactive suffix).
ROOT MEANING: ruins; rubble; collapse
Often used in the context of landslides, collapsed buildings, or other disasters.
